Fully accomplish your ministry.—2 Tim. 4:5.

 

What does it mean to accomplish our ministry fully? Simply put, to accomplish our ministry fully, we must have as full a share as possible in the preaching and teaching work. But more is involved than the amount of time. Our motive is important to Jehovah. Because we love Jehovah and our neighbor, we work whole-souled in our Christian ministry. (Mark 12:30, 31; Col. 3:23) Serving God whole-souled means giving of ourselves, using our strength and energies to the best of our ability in his service. When we appreciate the privilege of doing the preaching work, we try to share the good news with as many people as we can. We may be limited in the amount of time we can devote to the preaching work. Yet, that is what we love to do. We strive to improve our ability to reach people’s hearts with the good news. We make the preaching work our priority. w19.04 2 ¶3; 3 ¶4, 6

This ties in well with the recent update from the GB. Our ministry includes taking advantage of whatever is available for us to do

Our whole-souled service to Jehovah means we strive giving our best of ability using our strength and energy. It also include improving our ability and our preaching activity is our priority.
